The Jelly Hunger Buster

This is a weight watcher dessert recipe that I made up with when I first started my weight loss program. It's easy to make, and very low in points. It is not an instant recipe to prepare, but it's quicker than baking something, huh?

Ingredients:

1 pack of diet jelly (choose your favourite flavour)

1 200 g tube diet peach flavoured yoghourt

4 artificial sweetener pills

2 cups of boiling water

2 cups of cold (chilled) water.

Servings: 2

WW: 0.5 Points

This is what you do:

First, stir the contents of the jelly pack into the boiling water till it disoves.

Next, add the sweetener pills and dissolve.

Add the cold water and mix.

Place in cups or dessert bowls.

Put them in the fridge till the jelly settles.

Once the jelly has settled, put 1/3 of cup of diet yogurt on top, and enjoy.

Cinnamon Bananas

What!? Another banana weight watcher dessert recipe!? I must admit, I often go bananas! I just love the fruit, and you'll see that I even have a curry recipe with banana? But that's not dessert, and it's in another section... yum!

Anyway, this low fat dessert recipe is easy and quick to prepare (unless you don't even have 5 minutes to feed yourself in the morning! I know, it happens even in the best families, huh?).

Ingredients:

2 Bananas (the bigger the better)

2 tablespoons of brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

2 teaspoons low fat butter

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups of weight watchers' ice cream (the one you buy in powder saches and make yourself, 1 point per cup)

4 Serves

WW: 6.5 Point

This is what you do:

Slice the 2 bananas and place them in microwave-safe container.

Sprinkle the sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract over the bananas.

add the butter on top of the bananas.

Cover the container and microwave it till the sugar melts (1 or 2 minutes in high will do), and stir once.

Put 1/2 a cup of ice cream into each of 4 bowls.

Spoon the banana mixture evenly over the ice cream and serve "pronto"!

Tip: You may try substituting the ice cream for diet ice cream, but make sure you calculate its points. May be it will increase by 1 or 2 points, but what the heck!
